I a looking to buy my first road bike in the near future? I have been a mtb rider for years. I am looking for a light bike, higher end components, I am thinking about buying a used bike to save on costs.

I am looking for pointers, suggestions, things to look for in a used bike, what to watch out for buying used.

Thanks for the help

Take you time and do a lot of research.

NEVER pay for anything with Western Union. (Scam city)

Talking to the seller on the phone Greatly increase the chance that everything is on the up and up.
